Do you believe greenhouse gases should be regulated?

Coming up, we'll talk about the environmental rules that Zeldin is putting in place. Getting back to what you've done at the EPA, you've been pushing through deregulatory actions, including rolling back rules on coal plant pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from cars. How do you square deregulation with the EPA's mission to protect human health and the environment?

You brought up the wildfires in California. I mean, I think that that was a real... extreme situation that sort of captures the fears that many Americans have about climate change.
